Has anyone been on MIA-CUN first class? Any breakfast on this route on the first flight out?

BTW, the website doesn't show anything under "Meals"

AA does not operate First Class on the MIA-CUN flights.

And in Business Class - no food.

You know what I meant

Damn, MIA really lacks breakfast options. It's hard to get a TOASTED bagel in the morning

Because the front cabin is sold as Business (instead of First), a one-way can be had for only 9,000 BA Avios, or 7,000 Amex MR points with the current transfer bonus. Of course, Coach can be had for merely half those amounts.

"SAAver" award seats only for Avios redemptions.

Worth is all relative, my friend. OP could be a billionaire who downgraded from a private jet...but then maybe not

You mean Business Class, of course. At 1:40 in the air, no breakfast is likely. Better - get something on the ground prior to flight.

If you are lucky, you may get warm nuts... don't expect anything else.

OTOH, MIA's lack of bagel toasters is it's own way to push you to try cuban pastries and cafe con leche

This was an upgrade, didn't purchase first on this route.

I was just in MIA in the morning and all places only had cuban pastries and no bacon/egg sandwiches, at least north of D33

Not surprised as very very few on this board pay for J (though you would think most of them do based on their comments.)

Nothing wrong with starting the day with an empanada! Or perhaps get your blood sugar to spike with an arequipe latte from Juan Valdez Cafe.

And this assertion is based on what, exactly? I'm sure many on this board pay for F/J.

Doubt that too many people pay for J in the MIA-CUN local market (very short flight) but why wouldn't people buy J on all those XXX-MIA-CUN flow O&Ds?

Last time I looked at pricing to CUN from my city (DFW) the going rate in the J cabin was a small enough spread over the going fares in Y to make it attractive.

DFW-CUN, being a longer flight than MIA-CUN, has meal service up front, by the way.
